GAUGE:

1 Square = 9 3/4 in. (25 cm) in pattern stitch. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Baby Blocks Throw Reviewed by Maureen Kilcoyne on 2008-08-22
Love this pattern! Easy and colorful. I used White Pompadour, Pistachio, Bubblegum and Lavender (omitting the light Pink), and love the way it turned out. I crocheted the squares together into strips, then crocheted the strips together, and edged the whole thing in white.
